25th Anniversary of Chernobyl: No More Nukes Demo in Menlo Park, CA

Activist older women performed street theater called: “New Trends in Nuclear Radiation Wear for SF Bay Area Fashionistas” with a catwalk of “nuclear radiation protection wear”. The theme of their vignette: nuclear "protection" wear doesn’t protect anything!

They were joined by community members living in or near Menlo Park, some of whom read about the anti-nuke demo on indybay while others found about it via the Nuclear Information Resource Center website (see link here). One local resident came by to hold a no-nuke sign who had heard about the demo on corporate TV news this morning.

Menlo Park is home to the USGS Science Facility and the Raging Grannies say: listen to the REAL scientists at USGS—-their literature is peer-reviewed. The scientists at the US Geological Survey know: the severity of earthquakes can NOT be safely predicted as PG&E would have us believe!

The Grannies spoke and sang for camera and video to remind the public to help get the message to the US Nuclear Regulatory Commission: PG&E owns the nuclear facility at Diablo Canyon and its motive is PROFIT, not safety. Don’t forget that PG&E is the same company that brought us the San Bruno disaster! Last month the Grannies talked to some USGS employees; they are unhappy that PG&E is spewing BS statistics the way Fukushima is spewing radiation.
